Accomplishing goals is great, but in reading your post, I get the sense that you are comfortable and happy in your own skin - that's a blessing. It's a wonderful thing to be able to appreciate where you've been and where you're at now and enjoy who you are. <br /><br />I think I'm envious of your front porch!

How lucky we are to have what we have, to be able to have dreams and achieve them, or not...it depends on the path you choose I guess. You sound content and happy and I have my fingers crossed that your movie deal in in the making! What an accomplishment...and even if it isn't in the cards...to have written not just one, but several books...that's a major achievement so many aspire too but never reach....and you've done it.<br /><br />Have an amazing day, enjoy the breeze on your front porch, enjoy the horses and your home and family and most of all enjoy all you've been blessed with!christine warnerhttp://christine-warner.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-63636806225210000092012-07-19T11:38:41.947-04:002012-07-19T11:38:41.947-04:00How wonderful to have achieved your dreams at such...How wonderful to have achieved your dreams at such a young age.

Loved the post:):)<br />For my dreams...I think I'm living them in part...the other part...we'll see:)<br />I did want to do something "more", not average, with my life and I think I'm doing that. Not quite to the level I wish yet, but at least I'm on the right page:) (Writing...page...bit of a pun there;) I want to try and do a little more, using my voice, hopefully to do something audio (linked with my writing would be excellent:) Part of that fulfillment depends on me...I think I can feel myself revving up inside toward that goal, so again, we'll see:)<br />Wishing you a fabulous day, filled with blessings, and all the things you love:)<br />LoLoretta Wheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992133163167526850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-71003627710348789762012-07-18T23:05:18.460-04:002012-07-18T23:05:18.460-04:00Tina.

I didnt finish college because i lost interest because i didnt get with what i wanted to do. I married thinking it was right and i didnt know myself. I lived for him and not for me until my son was born. He struggled early to live and i fought for him. Then my husband battled cancer, i put him first of course and to protect my son. Then he decided to love someone else. It crushed me but at that point i began to live. To make my own decisions. To stand up. We reunited but he lost his battle cancer. Not before blessing me with a future husband. I almost lost him too. But stood strong and fought for him. Prayed my decisions were the right ones and to this day i dont regret. I just look forward with hope courage and faith to live life on my terms and not for others but along side othersLori C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08773760813246407464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-30607099668796277762012-07-18T22:37:22.768-04:002012-07-18T22:37:22.768-04:00Happy Birthday to an amazing woman..a great friend...Happy Birthday to an amazing woman..a great friend to my sister and a gift to your family.

Like you, my goal or I should say dream, was to published--something I didn't know I wanted until 4 short years ago, and when it happened I honestly didn't trust it was real. My ultimate goal is to live to be 100, mind and body intact, and buying a red convertible sports car to celebrate because I'll still be driving! Until then, I just hope to touch the hearts and minds of more and more readers. Love your closing line. Perfect.

I wanted to barrel race too and a guy had a horse he wanted trained to barrel race. I didn't make it to a competition, but I trained his horse to race. I've trained many horses over the years as that was my passion as a teen and young woman. My sister and I both broke horses for years. In fact- the last one I raised and broke was my own- the only one I ever owned and broke. Congrats on your book success! I hope I win. The card would be fine- but I'd just have to buy the book so... lolCalisa Rhosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743891437445099016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912436910530331572.post-33547937058247129582012-07-18T22:17:13.514-04:002012-07-18T22:17:13.514-04:00A goal I have recently achieved is teaching my for...A goal I have recently achieved is teaching my formally non verbal 14 year old son with autism to speak.
